ABB微电网支持牙买加向可再生能源过渡

  ABB微电网支持牙买加向可再生能源过渡

2018-03-02  国际能源网  刘鑫  https://www.china5e.com/news/news-1022175-1.html   


 牙买加位于古巴东南约500英里处，岛上的旅馆、餐馆和住宅严重依赖进口的化石燃料，这种燃料价格昂贵，而且价格波动较大。作为一个受欢迎的旅游目的地，牙买加每年在高峰时期要增加二百万游客。

 微电网领域的先驱ABB将向牙买加提供ABB微电网和存储系统，将可再生太阳能和风能整合到大型热带岛屿的电力供应系统中，减少牙买加对化石燃料的需求，减少碳足迹。

 “这是牙买加公共服务有限公司(JPS)今年要开展的最重要的项目之一，并将成为加勒比海及其他地区其他国家的典范，”JPS总裁兼首席执行官Emanuel DaRosa说。 “ABB的创新技术将使我们能够将清洁的可再生能源纳入我们的能源组合，确保电网稳定性的同时确保为消费者提供可靠的电力供应。”

 JPS已将大约160MW的可再生能源并入电网，发电量约占其总发电量的四分之一。

 ABB为可持续能源的发展做出了巨大的贡献，将可再生能源纳入电网，并在整个电力价值链中节约能源。ABB在其他方面也同样活跃，其在电气化方面拥有无可匹敌的专业知识和在电动汽车领域的领导地位。

ABB microgrid supports Jamaica’s transition to renewables

ABB will supply an ABB AbilityTM enabled microgrid and storage system to help integrate renewable solar and wind energy into the large tropical island’s power supply, reducing the need for fossil fuels and lowering the carbon footprint. ABB is a pioneer in microgrids, which because of their size and power are ideal for remote locations like islands, which cannot easily be connected to main power grids.
“This is one of the most significant projects to be undertaken by Jamaica Public Service Company Ltd (JPS), this year and will be a model for other countries in the Caribbean and beyond,” said Emanuel DaRosa, JPS President and CEO. “ABB’s innovative technology will enable us to leverage clean renewables into our energy mix while securing grid stability and ensuring reliable power supply to consumers.”
Located about 500 miles southeast of Cuba, the island’s hotels, restaurants and homes rely heavily on imported fossil fuel, which is costly and subject to volatile prices. A popular tourist destination, Jamaica’s population of three million surges by an additional two million visitors at peak times each year.
As part of an ambitious initiative to integrate more renewable sources into its energy mix, JPS has incorporated about 160 MW of renewable energy into the power grid, accounting for about one quarter of its total generation capacity.
ABB’s 24.5 megawatt (MW) microgrid facility and energy storage system will enable power availability when solar and wind sources are interrupted due to cloud cover, reduced wind or other factors. “This innovative solution reinforces ABB’s position as a partner of choice in enabling a stronger, smarter and greener grid” said Claudio Facchin, president of ABB’s Power Grids division.
ABB contributes to a sustainable energy future with pioneering technologies that integrate renewables into the power grid and enable energy savings throughout the electricity value chain. ABB is equally active on the consumption side with its unrivalled expertise in electrification and leadership in e-mobility.
ABB is a pioneer in microgrid technology with over 40 such global installations, across a diverse range of applications serving remote communities, islands, utilities and industrial campuses.
ABB (ABBN: SIX Swiss Ex) is a pioneering technology leader in electrification products, robotics and motion, industrial automation and power grids, serving customers in utilities, industry and transport & infrastructure globally. Continuing a history of innovation spanning more than 130 years, ABB today is writing the future of industrial digitalization with two clear value propositions: bringing electricity from any power plant to any plug and automating industries from natural resources to finished products. As title partner of Formula E, the fully electric international FIA motorsport class, ABB is pushing the boundaries of e-mobility to contribute to a sustainable future. ABB operates in more than 100 countries with about 135,000 employees. www.abb.com
